Austin lovers of music were given a rare treat last Wednesday night in the University Auditorium by Hi** Su ­ zanne Adams company, whit Ii was brought here under the auspices of the Matinee Musical club. That ev cry one present was w* ii pleased wit ii the concert was attested by the fre­ gilt tit and prolonged applause which greeted each number. Mute. Adams’ singing was such as She to gratify th** most expectant. displayed all the attributes and quali­ ties of the great artist that she is. Captivating the audience by her gra she cions and winning personality, held her h e a r e r s spellbound with the pure, ringing and < lear tones of her magnificent soprano voice. In one respect Mine. Adams’ com­ pany differs from the usual modern stellar organizations. She has sur­ rounded herself with a company of artists whose work is of the highest order- a fact which goes to show that besides possessing a rare voice, she also possesse good, practical sense. Mr. Grienauer shared th* honors It is doubtful if with Mine Adams. Austin people have ever had th** pl* astir* of hearing here a superior ’celloist, if they have heard one his equal. His ex*1* ution was perfect to the layman, and his selections were all that could have been desired. He seemed to divine his audience’s de­ sires wh* n he responded to encores with the always popular “ Traum erel” and Rubenstt in s melody in EF H e was heralded only us a substitute, be­ cause of Leo Stern’s illness, but if he ever appears here again he will be considered as much of an attrac­ tion as any other who could be as­ sociated with him.

Townes was umpire and was frequently compelled to call the boys down for being off­ side while the feast was in progress. Dean Mezes served as head linesman. The timekeepers, Dr. lf. V.

Taylor, became so absorbed in the game that they completely forgot their duties, and so the festivities continued without Interruption until there was nothng left to stay for. on The toasts were exceptionally spicy. President Prather delivered an c lo quern tribute to the heroic, self-sacri­ scrubs, who ficing and unrewarded came out every afternoon to be bat­ tered by stronger, heavier men, and helped to build up the Varsity, only to be forgotten when the great game is on and admiring thousands cheer the ‘first, team" to victory.
